  • Here’s the thing: I’m not jazzed about Pete or Biden or Bloomberg.  But if the various Dem factions are going to demand perfection from their candidate, then we’re going to lose again to a Republican

  • Just got done reading this entire thread.  Your hate warms my heart.  Y'all like bacon?  Then shut the fuck up and tolerate our political absurdity.

Nuke Iowa

Give everyone 5 hours to leave first.

 

Biden's camp may have legitimate claim to doubt all these results and file a lawsuit lol.

I'm trying very hard not to be that guy.

But they're making it hard not to be that guy.

Iowa will be relegated to a June caucus in 2024/28. JFC.

to continue the superbowl analogy, this would be like if it took 3 days to find out who won.  and then at the end, they said it was the patriots.

I had seen the Black Hawk results going around social media before this, so ... is this just what got caught? Is it a coincidence that the county that had its results on social media was ALSO the county that the IDP is having to issue a correction about?

Tin foil hats don't look good on me. They clash with my eyes.

Please... for the love of god.

I fucking hope so

Even their explanation of "OOPS WE ACCIDENTALLY GAVE THE NON-PETES VOTES TO STEYER AND PATRICK!" doesn't add up.

And this is just 1 county that we happened to have independent verification of via social media.

This is seriously on a razor's edge. This party might functionally die before the convention even happens.

I can’t believe they didn’t fit this story into Veep

I'm going to need a book about this, please.

This is 2020. It’ll be a 30 tweet longcat instead 

Looks like they just corrected. Bernie back in front in final voting and closer to Pete in SDEs

Cancel Iowa. Give New Hampshire double votes if they don’t manage to fuck it up

We need to establish a relegation system for states.

It's odd that these mistakes are all going against Bernie.

Bad luck, chaps!

 

It’s really hard to fuck up this bad. It’s not like it’s the first time Iowa had a caucus. I get the app didn’t work, but they had the numbers written down on paper, shouldn’t they just have reverted to the process they used for years where they had the results out in hours?

From what I heard the day after, they used to phone in a lot of results and they also committed to showing all the counts this years instead of these SDEs at the end of it all. There was nowhere near enough backup phone lines and then they went into I guess verifying all this by hand (which they've screwed up evidently).

Idiots

It’s odd that a random unverified twitter account is spreading unverified information and then some hack spreads it here. It’s like a troll farms wet dream.

Hi, this is a verified account who agrees.

Puerto Rico, a place with fantastic local government.

A link to NYTimes and a photo from the caucus? That's Putin shit.

Looking at numbers and seeing they are obviously fucked up?
Pure KGB.

GW needs to either kill me or fuck me, because he's neck deep in his feelings about me.

You’re just such a whiny bitch man. It’s not all a conspiracy against Bernie. These are morons. They fucked up.  It will get fixed. 

That's a bad look if true. With how incompetent Iowa has been through this whole process, though, it's easy to buy that it's a mistake. Never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence, or however the saying goes.

The Iowa Democrats have finally revealed the real mastermind behind the app:

Pete lost some weight on the trail

Personally, I think the easiest explanation is that this has probably always been a disorganized, unscientific shitshow but nobody really put the process under a microscope until this year.

The man was elected President of the United States of America and just bought a house for over $11 million dollars in Martha's Vineyard. I would love to be treated that badly.

His black ass should have bought that fucking house before he started wearing those damned tan suits and using that there spicy mustard.

Yes, agreed.

This reeks like BS. 

Show me some tweets from people manning the hotline complaining about this with timestamps that evening.  If there aren't any, I'll go ahead and call this a fabricated story.
